Then
What Happens?
Once registration is complete, the registration
clerk will enroll the individual into the required level course and schedule a
private evaluation with a certified evaluator. This evaluation will take
approximately one hour.
Each individual is assessed to determine if a
referral should be made for substance abuse treatment. There are a series of
questions called "risk indicators" or factors. If enough of these indicators are
present, we will facilitate a referral to a licensed treatment provider.
